What are you talking about?
45 million celebrating 250 years of the greatest Army on the planet, is cheap.
Coming from a former Marine. Happy birthday, doggies!
What sort of protection do the marchers have? (Not wanting secrets given away) In the video I saw they were out in the open. I am sure they have made plans. Concerned.
Yes! This is so cool! Is there a way to watch? What channels?
Just saw an article in gCaptain. The US Merchant Marine celebrated it’s 250th anniversary yesterday, June 12th.
Jeriamia O’Biran and a group of residents fromMachias, Mass. (now Maine) seized the British schooner HMS Margaretta. It was called the battle of Machias (or Margaretta) and was carried out by all civilian mariners. The first battle of the American Revolution.
$45 million is literally half an hour of the Pentagon’s annual budget.
The government shouldn’t spend any money on anything it doesn’t have to. Sell Air Force 1 and make Presidents take coach for all I care. If it isn’t connected with securing the borders or protecting enumerated constitutional rights, shouldn’t part with a red cent.
Get rid of all perks, security, guards, pensions and benefits for any federal officials, make everyone on the taxpayer’s dime take the cheapest mode of transport and eat the least expensive food.
no President, Senator, Congressman, cabinet member, or anyone taking a cent of taxpayer money should ever get anything other than the cheapest, lowest-class treatment.
Elected and appointed officials should be treated like one step above parolees or people on a chain gang; all members of government are up to no good.
How many millions were wasted with government manpower, and all that was used to investigate President Trump about Russian collusion, the Mueller investigation, along with all the other wasted millions that went into impeaching him twice, the January 6th Committee, and the multiple cases of lawfare conducted during his time out of office? Money is still being wasted on the outstanding "hush money" suit, and the E. Jeanne Carrol suit. This parade comes no where near the amount of money that's been wasted since 2015, when Donald Trump announced his run for the Presidency.
Well said.
That would be pretty ballsy considering we're showcasing our very best weapon systems.
How much do the perverts' faggot gay circuses and the racist idiots' 'Juneeenth' celebrations cost taxpayers every year?

US Postal Service is selling commemorative stamps for the 250th birthday of the Army, Navy, & Marine Corps.
If I remember correctly, that’s less than the Congress has paid out in hush money….
(Why haven’t Johnson and Thune released the names of the Congressmen involved?)
Ah. Should have known. The left wing Sacramento station KCRA.
My middle son is there company strength
3rd ID
E-5
He’s had blast exploring DC. Under The Donald
Part of the parade
He steps well apparently
The Flag Day Parade should spark a bit of Patriotism. It should be done every few years in DC.
Dittos! 👍
This is great for the country after enduring 4 years of the previous administration's hatred for our military and America! MAGA! 🇺🇲
Also a great big Happy Birthday and Thank you to President Trump!
🇺🇲🎊🎉🎈
TSOF
Trump Show of Force.
Xi,Putin,Jung-Il,and Khameni will love it......or else.
That’s the year I got divorced. Survived the marital conflict. Well worth the few hundred bucks it cost me to get rid of my philandering husband.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I wish Free Republic had a dating app.
Better use of money than much of covid, climate change, new designs for coin money etc.
